Description
Summary:The resonant substructures of B0→¯D0π+π− decays are studied with the Dalitz plot technique. In this study a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1 of pp collisions collected by the LHCb detector is used. The branching fraction of the B0→¯D0π+π− decay in the region m(¯D0π±)>2.1 GeV/c2 is measured to be (8.46±0.14±0.29±0.40)×10−4, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic and the last arises from the normalization channel B0→D∗(2010)−π+. The π+π− S-wave components are modeled with the isobar and K-matrix formalisms. Results of the Dalitz plot analyses using both models are presented. A resonant structure at m(¯D0π−)≈2.8 GeV/c2 is confirmed and its spin-parity is determined for the first time as JP=3−. The branching fraction, mass and width of this structure are determined together with those of the D∗0(2400)− and D∗2(2460)− resonances. The branching fractions of other B0→¯D0h0 decay components with h0→π+π− are also reported. Many of these branching fraction measurements are the most precise to date. The first observation of the decays B0→¯D0f0(500), B0→¯D0f0(980), B0→¯D0ρ(1450), B0→D∗3(2760)−π+ and the first evidence of B0→¯D0f0(2020) are presented.
